End of May 2017

I had requested fruit pizza for mother's day, but then forgot to buy an ingredient, so the kids and I made it the day after. They had fun decorating it.

It was sunny and beautiful one morning so we ventured out on a hike. I have wanted to hike Green Mountain (a small mountain right by our house) since we moved here and we finally did it! Well, not all of it, but some of it. It was fun and beautiful and windy and steep! Good thing we went too because it snowed the next day!

You can faintly see downtown in the distance.

Charity had fun and hasn't outgrown the ergo yet!

Trip to a fun park in Centennial

We finally remembered our coins on this trip to the Nature and Science Museum.

In the gem and minerals exhibit we found some mica!

In the discovery zone/kids room they had a fun drum activity the kids loved.

Charity's new favorite way to swing,

Micah conquered the fireman's pole. This has been a long time coming!

Micah had one more playdate with his good friend Braxton before he and his family moved to Idaho. We are going to miss them!

Some Sunday piano practicing

You can barely see it, but there is a plane in the sky pulling an advertisement for hail damage repairs. That's how crazy the hail storm was here! The kids and I had seen the plane a couple times in the week or so after the storm, but I didn't know what it was advertising for at first. So many people had their cars totaled and roofs damaged, there are insurance claim tents in parking lots all over the city.

We went to the open gymnastics at the rec center on Isla's birthday. They all had a great time.

Then on Saturday we went back to the rec center as a family and the kids tried out the rock wall and we went swimming. Happy 3rd birthday Isla! She is at such a fun age. She loves to sing throughout the day, narrating what is going on in song. She is starting to love to use her imagination when she plays and often is inviting imaginary friends to come and play. She has fun with Micah most of the time ;) and is increasing sweet with Charity. She likes to draw and do crafts, swing, run around, and watch Peppa Pig. We love her so much and are so grateful she is in our family!

On Memorial Day, Anna invited us over to her apartment complex for a BBQ and swimming. It was really fun!

The hot tub was the favorite pool!

Charity just chillin'

One night when Micah was cleaning up, he put these toys on top of the shelf and said he had made a little family. Michael thought it was a pretty good representation of our family...
